16. Not decided yet but I'd love to see Warren in the running. That most

likely if Hillary decides not to run. Her not running and supporting Warren, however likely that might be, sounds good to me right now.

At this point, who's your preferred pres. nominee for '16? [View all] Ken Burch Aug 2013 OP

Other....Martin O'Malley Gov. of Maryland. VanillaRhapsody Aug 2013 #1

OK...what're his selling points? Ken Burch Aug 2013 #3

He called the Gov of Virginia "Gov Vaginal Probe" to his face??? VanillaRhapsody Aug 2013 #10

Like the sound of that. n/t. Ken Burch Aug 2013 #13

A link below to his Wikipedia BIO, and a link to his 'On the Issues' page... Tx4obama Aug 2013 #23

I'm with you. MrSlayer Aug 2013 #11

He is! Agschmid Aug 2013 #27

I like him too. femmocrat Aug 2013 #30

I'm on the O'Malley bus too. Chan790 Aug 2013 #54

I also think O'Malley is the next great Democratic candidate. kwassa Aug 2013 #80

Is this Tommy Carcetti? JackRiddler Aug 2013 #81

I could get behind an O'Malley candidacy. roamer65 Aug 2013 #86

agree. Let's step out of the theater and into responsible governing by a liberal. librechik Aug 2013 #115

A ticket with some combination of O'Malley and Warren would be interesting... SMC22307 Aug 2013 #126

I'm kinda hoping for Ted Cruz myself tularetom Aug 2013 #2

I DID mean our nominee...but you make a good point. Ken Burch Aug 2013 #7

Senator Warren madokie Aug 2013 #4

IMO, other than financial issues Warren does not have enough knowledge on other matters. Tx4obama Aug 2013 #14

Mindreader! That's exactly how I feel. Auntie Bush Aug 2013 #46

Why should she 'stay in the Senate to learn more things'? Obama had very little experience sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #83

Dennis Kucinich. ZombieHorde Aug 2013 #9

Funny - a Fox 'news' employee. AlinPA Aug 2013 #18

Sad that a FOX News employee is more liberal than the ZombieHorde Aug 2013 #20

I lost respect that I had for him when he became an associate of the Fox 'news" team. AlinPA Aug 2013 #21

That's cool. ZombieHorde Aug 2013 #24

Same concerns here, but his being an associate of Hannity, O'Reilly, Doocy and the rest AlinPA Aug 2013 #26

I care more about a person's political opinions than their coworkers. nt ZombieHorde Aug 2013 #35

I will always respect Kucinich. He was the only one with enough courage to say no to the Iraq War. liberal_at_heart Aug 2013 #45

is that what you tell Steve Leser? burnodo Aug 2013 #71

Is he an employee of Fox? AlinPA Aug 2013 #74

As many times as he appears on Fox burnodo Aug 2013 #82

Is he still telling the truth?? Why would lose respect for someone for using any venue sabrina 1 Aug 2013 #87

I�d say appearing on Fox �news� just gives them help in claiming that they are "fair and balanced" AlinPA Aug 2013 #108

That doesn't mean he agrees with the Faux agenda. Ken Burch Aug 2013 #132

I see your point. In trying to reconcile this, I have thought about the parable that had Jesus AlinPA Aug 2013 #134

Well, it's hard times...guy's gotta pay the rent somehow. Ken Burch Aug 2013 #135

No favorite. nyquil_man Aug 2013 #17

So the choices are Sentaor CitiBank, Senator Tata, or another one-term Senator with good Egalitarian Thug Aug 2013 #19

There was also an option for suggesting other candidates. Ken Burch Aug 2013 #28

I certainly like Warren and I love Sanders, but I don't see any way they get through the Egalitarian Thug Aug 2013 #42

Senator Tata? KamaAina Aug 2013 #119

Clinton famously threw a big gala affair for her new corporate sponsor, Tata Egalitarian Thug Aug 2013 #120

Ron Wyden, Mark Udall... Octafish Aug 2013 #33

Pretty much all healthcare activists are going to oppose Wyden Ken Burch Aug 2013 #62

Is his plan better? Octafish Aug 2013 #70

I'm not so sure LWolf Aug 2013 #68

Not certain if Wyden's the best candidate. I like that he stood up to NSA domestic operators. Octafish Aug 2013 #72

He's a pretty good Senator. LWolf Aug 2013 #73

Lord Sauron. he has a more moderate platform than any of them. Katashi_itto Aug 2013 #41

I wouldn't say it's more moderate at all. But he certainly looks less extreme than he used to -- herturn2016 Aug 2013 #43
